Boswell: Piney Creek

Piney Creek near Boswell is very likely the spot county natives would reference if you were to ask the question, "What's your favorite place in Izard County?" Most of us who have ties to Izard have splashed in this stream at this particular location all of our lives. Everyone has memories to share from this special place!
My most vivid memory is that of seeing my first American Bald Eagle in the wild soar across the creek from above the bluff as I sunned myself on the beach one morning after camping there the night before. I'll never forget that moment!

My name is Kelly Turner and as a kid growing up in calico rock i've spent unbeliveable hours and days swimming and camping at piney creek. I have mixed feelings about all the tourist in and around the area, some have no respect for what nature has given us. The last time I went to piney ther were no treaspassing signs there and no doubt for good reason. It is gods country and I'll never forget it and the good times we had at piney creek.
